We had a fantastic turnout for our first Founders’ Day celebration since 2019! Thank you to all the Chicago Belles who attended. We started off the morning with Mass at St. Clement’s Church in Lincoln Park.
After a beautiful Mass, we walked over to Galway Arms for brunch. We had a delicious brunch spread, mimosas and wine. Caroline (‘18) opened the event thanking everyone for attending and showed off the great raffle/auction items that were donated by generous Belles. Clare (‘20) then led us in a prayer to bless all the Saint Mary’s women and give thanks.
It was a great morning of prayer, giving back, and celebrating Saint Mary’s with Belles from all different class years. We had a fantastic silent auction and raffle! Thank you to all the generous Belles who donated these amazing items! The Blackhawks tickets and beaded French Cross purse were a big hit! Check out some of those items in the photos below.
If you are unable to attend the Founders’ Day event but would still like to donate to the Saint Mary’s Chicago East Endowed Scholarship, you can do so here.
